The Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association with a French acronym (ADHOC) emerged out of a scratch in December 1991 soon after the Paris Peace Agreements of October 23, 1991, bringing the four factional fighting parties to a peace agreement. Since then, ADHOC has sought support either from National, Regional or International communities to reach its specific goals to concretely change the attitude and behavior of people in government for good governance.
Forum Asia
Forum-Asia – a Human Rights and Development Organization based in Bangkok, Thailand- has adopted a resolution awarding ADHOC a full membership, which, a few years later, was elected many times as a Member of the Executive Committee. As such, ADHOC has demonstrated its strong commitment and unfailing stance to promote and protect human rights in the country and the region. ADHOC has collaborated from time to time with other regional organizations like SEACA (Southeast Asian Committee for Advocacy) and Asian Human Rights Commission based in Hong Kong.
